This study aimed to investigate the effect of inoculation time of phosphate- solubilizing Kluyvera sp. CL2 on fruit quality in cultivation of Campbell early' grape. When phosphate-solubilizing strain was treated at the stone-hardening stage, soil phosphorous increased, exchangeable cations such as K, Ca and Mg also increased. Soil pH was not changed severely due to the soil buffer capacity. Water soluble phosphate concentrations did not decrease heavily up to 20 days after inoculation. When this strain was treated at the berry-softening stage, soil phosphate solubilization ratio was high, cluster weight and sugar content also increased. Both anthocyanin contents and Hunter's values were seen to be significant when inoculation times were stone-hardening stage and berry-softening stage, in particular, increase of Hunter's value a resulted in the improvement of coloration. From these results, we could find that the inoculation of phosphate-solubilizing Kluyvera sp. CL2 at berry-softening stage was the most effective in improvement of fruit productivity and quality in cultivation of'Campbell early' grape.

To investigate the relationship between the milling degree and color of milled rice, an empirical whiteness model was developed according to the milling degree from $0\%\;to\;20\%$ using paddy of three different varieties of Chuchung, Nampyong and Odae. The values of determination coefficient and the root mean square error between measured and predicted whiteness were 0.990, 0.877, respectively, and the whiteness model was proved to be quite applicable. The relationships between whiteness values and color factors in several color systems were tested to select useful color factors for development of convenient whiteness meter. The whiteness value of milled rice according to degree of milling could be converted into b and Hunter whiteness in Lab color system. B in RGB color system at high values of determination coefficient were 0.990, 0.985, and 0.989, respectively.

Product quality and shelf-life effect of sodium lactate (SL) in combined with chitosans with various molecular weights (MW) in low-fat sausages (LFSs) stored at $10^{\circ}C$ were evaluated. LFSs with SL and chitosans had 75-76% moisture, 1-2% fat, and 15.8-17.1% protein with a pH range of 6.3-6.6. Water holding capacity was decreased, but most textural properties were increased with the addition of chitosan with MW of 30-40 kDa. Hunter a (redness) values were also increased with the addition of sodium lactate and chitosans in combination with laccaic acid at the level of 0.05%, resulting in similar Hunter a value of 150 ppm of sodium nitrite. The combination of SL and chitosans slightly extended the shelf-life of LFSs approximately 3-6 days at $10^{\circ}C$, resulting in inhibition the growth of L. monocytogenes and E. coli O157:H7, as compared to the control. However, the inhibition of microbial growth at $10^{\circ}C$ was not as strong as that at $4^{\circ}C$. Thus, the storage temperature should be as low ($<4^{\circ}C$) as possible to have a maximum antimicrobial activity in LFS containing SL and various chitosans.

The changes of cooked rice stored in an electric rice cooker at different temperature were investigated using sensory and mechanical methodology. The desirability of cooked rice was deteriorated during storage, particulary cooked rice stored at $80^{\circ}C$ had the lowest desirability. As the storage time increased, glossiness, clumpiness, adhesiveness, moistness and sweet flavor of cooked rice decreased but browning and off-flavor increased. The higher storage temperature resulted in the lower in glossiness, firmness, cohesiveness, moistness, sweet flavor and in the more browning, adhesiveness and off-flavor. L and b values measured by Hunter Color Difference Meter were highly correlated with the sensory glossiness and color.

Alkaline treatment during preparation of anchovy extracts was studied for its changes in some of the physicochemical and sensory qualities. The dried anchovy was blended in 0-0.5N NaOH solutions and then incubated at $60^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. After extraction the suspensions were neutralized and centrifuged. The results showed that the yields of solids and protein were increased by 3-5 fold of those of water extract as alkaline concentration and treatment time increased. The intrinsic viscosity showed little changes for the extracts prepared with 0-0.2N NaOH solution while the extracts prepared with over 0.3N NaOH resulted a initial small decrease followed by a rapid increase to the maximum point. The changes in color expressed as Hunter 'L', 'a' and 'b' values showed that the L value increased rapidly until 3 hours of treatment followed by a decrease, and 'a' and 'b' values were increased a little. The intensities of odor and taste were markedly increased by 2-3 fold for all of the descriptions investigated where clam-like odor and taste and sea complex odor were particularly significant.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of different moisture addition and sugar on the quality of Nokcha-julpyun, during 24hrs. As the result of the Hunter's color values, lightness, redness and yellowness were increased slightly or not after 24hrs and showed middle levels in $30%{\sim}40%$ moisture addition groups. It seemed that the addition of sugar to Nokcha-julpyun affected the redness and yellowness of 40% and 45% moisture addition groups more than the other groups. In texture profile, springiness of Nokcha-julpyun was not different significantly among all the groups during storage. Cohesiveness was getting higher by increase of moisture level and getting lower by storage. Sugar addition seemed to lower the rate of decrease of cohesiveness. Chewiness and hardness were getting lower by increase of moisture level and getting higher during storage. In this case sugar addition seemed to interfere the Nokcha-julpyun to be hard. Adhesiveness showed to be decreased during storage, but didn't show any correlations with water level. Sugar addition to Nokcha-julpyun seemed to increase springiness and adhesiveness slightly. 35% moisture and sugar addition group had the lowest values in springiness, hardness and cohesiveness. Both 40% groups and 45% moisture and sugar addition group had high values in springiness, cohesiveness and adhesiveness but had the lowest values in hardness and chewiness. In sensory evaluation, $30%{\sim}40%$ moisture addition groups showed good preferences in color, flavor, taste, tenderness and chewiness, and the 35% moisture and no sugar addition group showed the best overall acceptance among the groups. Above results indicated that moisture addition level with $30%{\sim}35%$ seems to give the best quality to Nokcha-julpyun added green tea powder with 6% level, and for the purpose to reduce the changes of texture profiles during storage, it is benefit to add sugar a little to Nokcha-julpyun.

The physicochemical properties of viscosity, color, acidity and volume of anchovy extract were measured for their changes during extraction with alkali solution and/or proteolytic enzymes. The dried anchovies were ground in 0.3N NaOH solution followed by hydrolysis with neutral or alkaline protease and centrifuged to obtain anchovy extract. The results showed that the volume of supernatant after centrifugation increased from 70% of water only extraction to 89% by combined alkali-enzyme treatment. Titratable acidity of the extract showed a tendency of a little increase while viscosiy decreased with prolonged enzymic hydrolysis. Changes in Hunter value of 'L', 'a', 'b' showed that the extract became darker and less yellowish as protease treatment prolonged.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of oyster shell calcium powder (OSCP) as a substitute for phosphates in curing agent, on the quality of restructured pork ham. Restructured pork ham was processed under six treatment conditions: T1 (no additives), T2 (0.3% sodium tripolyphosphate), T3 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein), T4 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.15% OSCP), T5 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.3% OSCP), and T6 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.5% OSCP). Addition of OSCP significantly increased the ash content and pH of restructured pork ham (p<0.05), but did not affect the cooking loss and water holding capacity values of restructured pork ham. Addition of OSCP had no effect on Hunter a and b surface color values of restructured pork ham, but did decrease the Hunter L surface color value (p<0.05). The addition of 0.5% OSCP showed significantly higher chewiness and springiness values of restructured pork ham, compared with the addition of phosphates (p<0.05). In conclusion, the addition of OSCP combined with low NaCl and 0.5% whey protein can be considered a viable substitute for phosphates in the curing agent, when processing restructured pork ham.

In the modern propulsion systems, requited thrust is obtained using a nozzle. Sometimes shock and induced boundary layer separation is generated in an over-expanded convergent-divergent supersonic nozzle. It occurs because the nozzle expansion ratio is too large for a given nozzle pressure ratio (NPR). This phenomenon can be explained that it redefines effective nozzle geometry, shorer nozzle geometry and lower pressure ratio, in a given pressure ratio. Numerical studies were conducted about a fixed geometry 2D nozzle in overexpanded condition and compared with Hunter's experimental result. For the numerical simulation of the supersonic nozzle, Navier-Stokes equations are considered and as a turbulent model, $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ /$\kappa$-$\omega$ blended SST two equation turbulent model is used. The characteristics of $\lambda$-shape shock systems due to the interaction of shock and boundary layer was investigated in a low NPR. And the result of comparison of thrust value shows that a fixed geometry nozzle can cover required flight mission.

To maintain the freshness and to prevent browning of cut Kimchi cabbages, the effect of the cutting process using a ceramic knife under $N_2$ blowing on the quality of the cut Kimchi cabbages was investigated. Kimchi cabbages cut with a ceramic knife under $N_2$ gas blowing conditions (NC) were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ for 7 days, and their weight reduction ratio and the browning degree and appearance were compared with those of the control treatment samples (OS; cut with a stainless steel knife under normal air, OC; cut with a ceramic knife under normal air). The weight reduction ratios were 0.07~0.13%, and the NC treatment showed the lowest reduction ratio among all the treatments (p<0.05). The Hunter L values increased, but the a and b values decreased after 5-day storage in all the treatments. The NC treatment had higher L values but lower a and b values than the OS and OC treatments. The browning degrees by Hunter color value, PPO activity, and appearances were the least in the NC treatment (p<0.05). The cutting process with a ceramic knife under $N_2$ blowing could be applied to the cutting of vegetable products and for minimal fruit processing.
